Synopsis

While his gang lies low, Jesse James adopts a rancher's identity and uses romance to support his criminal plans. Several women become entangled in his manoeuvres, turning concealment into a source of jealousy and danger. The outlaw's confidence is tested as his private deceptions begin to interfere with the gang's work.

Cast

Behind the scenes

Don 'Red' Barry played Jesse James while also directing, co-producing and contributing to the screenplay. The Technicolor production filmed in Silver Creek, Mississippi. Its romantic intrigues offer an invented variation on the outlaw legend rather than a biographical reconstruction.
